    I haven't listened to this first hand, but my friend loves it. I attached it to a cooler backpack and included some beers and other beer cool things. Was a great addition to the gift pack. He tells me he takes it everywhere as he is a frequent traveler. p.

    I mostly use this in the shower and just leave it in there for weeks. It has a nice long battery life. I think it sounds good but it is nothing amazing. Definitely fits the price point for sound quality.

    Be careful not to set at the edge of the counter it bounced off a shelf from the bass vibration and crashed on the garage floor. Decent speaker for small area. The speaker survived the crash in unscathed.

    Not sure what I was thinking, but thought this was bigger than a cell phone. Its very small and sounds great until you try to blast it and then the quality plummets. Comes with hook to attach to your bag, which is convenient for the beach.

    i got this for my son ( who always bowers our good stuff.) After many time of our items being "lost" or "stolen" we started getting him economic friendly products. It works, inexpensive, and now there is no reason for my son to ask to use our products.

    I'm very impressed with the sound. For the price it was a good purchase and I enjoy it daily. I didn't know when I bought it that it can also be used for phone calls but I'm happy to report that the clarity is excellent when making calls.

    I was a little skeptical at first when I bought it. I know a lot of my friends have speakers that cost them $75+ so finding this one for only $30 seemed too good to be true. However the quality is amazing. And it very much waterproof too.

    I have bought little Bluetooth speakers like this in the past. None compare to the sound quality of this little guy. I use it in my office at work and can really rock out to it. Does not distort at higher volumes like other small speakers tend to do.

    I have to say that when I received this, I wasn't expecting much because of how small it was. I was amazed at the sound coming from this tiny speaker!! The fact that I got it on sale for $20 made it a very worthwhile purchase.

    I purchased this Bluetooth speaker for my 9 year old son and he loves it. It is just the right size for him to take with him wherever he goes. He uses it on a regular basis and when we go out of town. Great product at a great price.

    This portable waterproof Altec Lansing Baby Boom XL IMW270 Bluetooth speaker has a more powerful and crispy sound than a similar size but more expensive Sony brand Bluetooth speaker I bought a couple of weeks prior. It’s really worth the money.

    Disappointed in the product (and high reviews!) but I guess you get what you pay for. We bought this to take with us to the beach and simply put the volume at max is not nearly enough for outdoor use. Sure the beach has waves and some wind but unless we were within 3 feet of this speaker, it could not be heard. Love the size and shape and weight but this is money lost for us at this point. As others noted the clip that comes with it is super cheap and you'll want to use something else to secure it to your bag or umbrella or what have you.

    I like how easy it is to use and despite it's size it produces a good volume of sound. I like using it while soaking up the sun at the beach. The only reason it doesn't get five stars is because some times the sound isn't as crisp and clear as I would like.

    Great value for the price (Roughly 30 bucks I think). I use it working out in my garage and we both use it for the shower/baths. Audio can be a little less than clear, but not bad by any means. That's the only thing that drops it to a four.
